Taking Flight, Bronze

Taking Flight II, bronze

About the Sculpture

This falcon sculpture is taken from Bill’s original lime wood carving. It has incredible detail, down to the stitching on the glove. This very special carving took three months to complete.

Inspiration

“The falcon is one of my favourite birds and consequently I had wanted to create this particular sculpture for many years. It took me quite a while to find the piece of wood I needed and to collect all the reference material I required. It then required around three months to complete.” This bronze is the result of that original carving. If you are interested in the bronze process you can see more information here.
